A fallacy from relevance occurs when the response to an argument is not relevant to the argument. They ignore the point and attempt to derail the argument by bringing irrelevancies into the debate. In this post, I will discuss the faulty appeal to envy, the faulty appeal to pity, and the faulty appeal to authority.
